1977 Swiss Shooting Taler Medal Luft PCGS SP69 On Hold

Hans Erni was an internationally renown Swiss artist who lived from 1909-2015 (that is not a typo). Among the many works of art he created are included postage stamps, currency and myriad medals. The 1977 Swiss Shooting Taler series of four medals was composed of the themes feuer (fire), luft (air), wasser (water) and erde (earth). Thus far, PCGS has only certified one of each of these medals as SP69 and this is what is now offered as a complete set. The medals are vibrantly toned and have dramatically executed designs. If one were to endeavor to purchase each as a run-of-the-mill untoned, uncertified medal then they would cost approximately $100 each plus shipping. This set will likely not be duplicated and will not be broken up while in my possession. The cost per medal is $1,000 for a total set cost of $4,000. On Hold
